Metal mesh, the unknown problem solver

GKD: Excellent response, great discussions

GKD – GEBR. KUFFERATH AG was delighted with its latest appearance at the ‘Techtextil’ event in Frankfurt. Both the visitor frequency and the quality of discussions held at the leading international trade fair for technical textiles and nonwovens surpassed previous fairs. Visitors showed particular interest in GKD’s weaving expertise. The wide range of wire mesh types and material combinations on show offered users interesting alternatives to existing solutions. This expertise was impressively demonstrated with ‘Texteel’, an innovative hybrid mesh made of stainless steel and carpet fibers that was developed in cooperation with the carpet manufacturer ANKER. Its metallic shimmer shows that mesh designs incorporating metal can lend a product properties which secure an advantage in the market.
